Dread Hornz Vol 2 continues on in the tradition of classic ‘70s horn-driven reggae recordings from Jamaica that remain ingrained in our minds and ears - the trio horn section of trombone, trumpet, and saxophone create just the right amount of tension and excitement.

Performed by the Booom Hornz, Dread Hornz Vol 2 contains 5 song folders. Each song folder has multiple horn lines and riffs. Created for maximum flexibility and usability, the pack includes horn sections (trumpet, tenor sax, and trombone) along with each instrument provided separately. You’ll have the original dry recordings, and as a bonus, we’ve included several FX versions: dub (tape echo reverb/delay), echo version only, spring reverb, plate reverb, and lo-fi - all to help provide flexibility and inspiration for your tracks. 

With over 1,200+ loops and 250+ one-shots, Dread Hornz Vol 2 provides a variety of tempos and keys that lean themselves toward use in bass music production, dub, reggae, grime, electro, jungle, breakbeat, dancehall, hip hop, trip-hop, and beyond.

The one-shots include stabs, sustained notes, swells, chords, and short riffs.

Please note: inside the pack, you’ll find most of the loops have extra empty space after the notes finish, this is done to allow the FX, such as echos and reverbs, the full time needed to decay to a 0 volume and not be cut off.
